I really wish they had a bulk bid/delete like Heritage.

Looks a little like this...

2)Oh crap, it’s up.
3)frantically place 125 bids
4)within 10 minutes after placing 125 bids, receive 124 outbid notices
5)feel preemptive buyers remorse for the one bid that is holding
6)wait for next fall for next auction
7)tell everyone that nothing they had fit what you were looking for.

I was with you up to #5!! Up to almost 3k views!! I thought it was a link or commentary on lots that had been reviewed. Fasten your seat belts, I get the feeling this is going to be some auction! Now where was that winning lottery ticket...........

I wish I had a boat load of $$$$$$.
Just went thru the whole thing, only place bids on 2 lots, but definitely would done 40+.
I was outbid on an item, before I clicked submit bid. LOL!!!!

I placed bids on 27 items. I have been outbid on 2 so far - top bidder on 25 worth $19,400. If I win all 25, I have some 'splainin to do to Mrs. Ailes - but if I do win the 25, I will get some great deals!!

I wish all auction houses would have that feature!

Between 0 and I bid will hold up, most likely the former.

Whoever I am tangling with on the Mick Dice and a few other lots will get a reprieve until this evening— gotta finally get to work.

So many amazing cards for auction, most are far beyond my range due to condition. This is the first one I've signed up for. Keeping an eye out to pick up an old Cobb, Cy, Collins, WJ, Speaker or Wagner.

The REA auction is exactly what Tom Cruise would say, "Sometimes you gotta say WTF and go for it"

Whoa!

Well,

While there is A LOT in the auction - there is also A LOT missing (most notably Kahn's Sets, and some Topps test issues) from their blog post - a little disappointing to have to wait for that stuff! That said, I lost count of the bids I placed.For sure the most initial bids I've placed in any auction so far.

Matty - I suspect that Mantle dice is going to go crazy!! I know a couple of big time collectors with very deep pockets that will likely be going after it. Placed a bid on it just for kicks :) Good luck to all!

I almost never win anything in REA. And I bid strong. I do much better in Heritage.
